Leopold Fieseler, a detective with the Zeon Public Peace Department/Zeon Public Safety Department is charged with investigating terrorist attacks against Zeon government officials led by an anti-Zabi group called Valkyrie. While researching to find out who were the culprits, Leopold gets into trouble when Valkryie supporters within the ZPPD/ZPSD "arrest" him for getting his hands into classified information to help find out who are the culprits for a planned terrorist attack against Gihren Zabi himself during the One Year War.

Reminded me much of Stand Alone Complex's first plot. What struck me was that one of the anti-Zabi terrorists was...

Spoiler for SPOILERS:

an ex-Earth Federation officer based in Side 3 who agreed to join Zeon's Republican Guard prior to the blockade. That struck me well when I read it 'cause most Feddies don't want to do anything with them until they acknowledge them to be their rulers.

So why do people fight, anyway?
Perhaps the meaning of existence lies within their will to fight.
People feel a sense of accomplishment through battle.
And itís also a fact that the ones actually fighting are never perceived as being tainted.

*sigh* If you check our Twitter feed, you'll notice that I make updates about projects. :/

And I've already had the Gihren manga translated for quite some time. I'm merely making a complete photoshopping of it (aka translated sound effects and what not), so it's taking a lot of freaking time to do. Nonetheless, I believe that Volume.01 will be a huge labor of love.

Sorry I don't do twitter, But I'll check it out. xD I look forward to it.

Gundam's expanded universe has been pretty sweet lately. I think it functions a lot like Star Wars expanded universe where the authors play off of past works and the plot lines they fleshed out to in turn do their own thing. At this point in time the One Year War has a pretty rich history beyond the initial TV Series/Movies that you'll only know about if you've read the expanded universe stuff. Unfortunately it seems most of it still centers around Zeon and not enough around the Earth Federation side.

I'm about to read the first volume of the MSG novel, I hope one day in the future they'll animate the expanded universe series like CDA, Gihren assasination plot (assuming there's enough MS action, I haven't read it yet), and also Gundam Sentinel.

Agreed. I wish there was more material that discussed the inner workings of the Feddies. Especially when you think of all the changes it underwent after the OYW.
